June 21, 1994

Discrimination charged: Chicago Typographical Union Local 16 filed a complaint with the Illinois Department of Human Rights, charging the Chicago Sun-Times with discrimination against 90 of its members. The union said the workers have not had a wage increase since January 1988 while younger, non-union employees have received increases regularly. The union and company have been stuck in a contract dispute since the union's last contract with the newspaper expired in January 1989.
